The built-in Learn to Code lessons let students explore and solve rich puzzle worlds that develop coding skills and form the foundation of their programming knowledge.\nTynker is specifically designed for younger learners and uses visual-based coding puzzles to develop problem-solving skills\, encourage persistence\, and promote creativity. Students begin experimenting with visual blocks\, then progress to text-based coding with Swift as they solve puzzles and build projects.\nTeacher Guides are designed to help you bring coding into the classroom—no matter what your level of coding experience. Extension activities\, reflection questions\, journal prompts\, a grading rubric\, and more are included to help you deepen students’ understanding of the material.\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″]Register[/vc_column][/vc_row] \n
